For the Viper bandits, who often patrol in teams of two warships, dispatching five warships in one fell swoop is a rare gesture. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info they originally planned to make a lot of money by seizing the transport ship, but who knew that they unfortunately bumped into the blessing of the Holy Dragon Shenwei, and they suffered the fate of total destruction in an instant, which can be described as a tragedy.

On the other hand, the total extermination of the Viper Bandits was a long-awaited victory for the Lenstas, but the price paid for this victory was also unexpectedly heavy. Among the Pegasus knights who directly fought against the Viper Battleship, there were many wounded people, represented by the female general whose mount was down. As for the infantry team that served as support on the shore, it also paid nearly dozens of casualties. However, the cargo box where the Pegasus Treasure was imprisoned was not attacked because it was considered a valuable commodity, which was probably the only thing to be thankful for.

The shore of the lake, which had been bombarded indiscriminately by magnetic beam cannons, was now in a miserable state like a storm passing through it, and reinforcements from the city of Leubek had to abandon the land route and take several sailing ships directly across the lake. The infantrymen who landed from the galleon, under the arrangement of the court scholars, immediately threw themselves into the operation of rescuing the wounded and cleaning up the aftermath.

For the residents of Lulbeck City, being infested by vipers has become almost a daily routine, so the process of cleaning up the aftermath has also been honed with great skill. The wounded were transported back to the royal city by water for treatment, the sappers worked hard to repair the damaged lakeshore roads, the usable and unusable supplies were recovered by infantry squads, and even several improvised sailboats were requisitioned to salvage the Viper ships that had sunk in the lake with the assistance of the Pegasus Knights......

Marveling at the efficient aftermath of the Liensta's work, Bundao gave up the idea of helping to cause trouble, shrugged his shoulders and walked towards the forest located on the shore of the lake. The inner shore of the lake is dotted with dense coniferous forests, which are both the habitat of Pegasus and one of the few remaining ecosystems in Gulambell.

The Viper Battleship, which had previously been shaved off by the female general, crashed into a coniferous forest somewhere, and the trees that had been run over by the battleship formed a clear signpost. Following the signpost, he found that the Lensta knights had drawn a cordon around the warship, and a few Pegasi were hovering in the sky.

Noticing Wen Dao coming over, the knight uncle with his hand on the hilt of his sword threw a fierce gaze at him, "If you dare to approach, you will cut you". However, after seeing Wen Dao's appearance clearly, the uncle's expression instantly turned flustered.

"Dragon, Dragon, Dragon!"

The scene of Wen Dao annihilating the Viper Battleship with a waterspout left an extremely shocking impression on the Liansta people watching the battle by the lake, and the "Holy Dragon Messenger" also changed from a legendary term to a real majesty in one fell swoop. The soldiers who heard the name of "Dragon Messenger" around them turned their heads to look, and after the initial panic, the knight uncle also "snapped" and made a standard knightly salute.

"Dragon Envoy, do you have any orders?"

"No, no, I'll just come over and take a look......" BEING TREATED SO SOLEMNLY BY THE KNIGHT UNCLE OF HIS FATHER'S GENERATION, WEN DAO COULDN'T HOLD IT ANYMORE, AND LOOKED INSIDE. "Uh, can I go in?"

"Of course, you can come in!"

The knight uncle hurriedly gave up his seat, and while maintaining a saluting posture, he followed the back of the dragon envoy with a mixture of love and fanaticism. Wen Dao, who had already taken a few steps, was poked by that gaze and felt cold on the back of his neck, so he had to stop and look back tremblingly to greet him.

"Well, please keep this place and don't let the idlers get close. ”

Although it's redundant nonsense, I always feel like I can't leave without saying something.

It turned out that his judgment was correct, and the knight's uncle, who received the dragon envoy's imperial order, burst into a shimmering divine light, his mustache instantly turned up, and he drew his knight's sword with a loud bang, and responded with all his strength with a volume that seemed to burst his chest.

"Yes! Knight Alec, broken bones!"

As if echoing the knight's uncle's impassioned oath, there was a commotion around him. The knights drew their swords in salute with millisecond precision, and the fighting spirit of gold and silver shone one after another, and the formation was almost like the birth of a paladin legend.

(That's enough, let's let me go, uncles...... ）

Wen Dao groaned in his heart. As a social person who has already graduated from the second secondary school period, he is really embarrassed to dig a hole and get into it at this moment, but he has to hold on to his spirit and throw a stiff smile at the knights. When he finally reached the fallen Viper warship, the intense sense of mental shame almost made him collapse.

(It's torture...... What a terrible generation gap between civilizations...... ）

Wen Tao lamented the difference in values while forcing himself to focus on the Viper Battleship.

The Viper warship, which had half of its engine cut off by the female general, was lying on the ground in an awkward posture with its body tilted at the moment. Wen Dao looked back at the knights on guard in the distance, hesitated, and quietly activated the controllable force field. Use your fingers to pull a flat matrix of force fields in the air before tucking it underneath the ship.

"Up!"

Wen Dao put his fingers together and lifted it up, and the flat matrix immediately pulled up and lengthened, lifting the inclined warship up like a jack. With the rattling sound of the trees tumbling, the assault battleship weighing dozens of tons was turned over in this way!

There were countless gasps in the surrounding woods, and Wen Dao looked at the warship that had been turned over with joy.

"Tsk, it's really convenient. ”

The program of controllable force field gives Wendao the power to create force field matrices of arbitrary shape and size within a limited power. From crowbars to shields to jacks, there's virtually no limit to how you can use them. The more Wen Dao is used, the more convenient it feels, and it is no wonder that the force field is listed as the basic technology that supports the galactic civilization.

With gratitude for Long Ji's gift, Wen Tao briskly manipulated the terminal bracelet to transmit the data scanned by the Viper Battleship to the quantum network, and found out its origin in less than a few seconds.

"Saint-Vano Empire...... Assault landing craft?"

The holographic data that popped up from the virtual window made Wen Tao frown.

According to intelligence, the warship used by the Viper bandits was a Boar-class raid landing craft made by the San Vano Empire. Because the Boar-class landing craft can not only carry a considerable number of soldiers, but also have excellent protection and rich on-board armament, it is widely deployed in the marine forces of the San Vano Empire, and has become the top soldier of the Empire's siege and plunder.

"Is it the Empire of San Vano again......"

Unlike the half-civilian and half-military Maitin-class transport, the Boar-class landing craft is a purely military vehicle of the Empire, and the intelligence mentions that the San Vano Empire does not officially sell this kind of armed vehicle to other interstellar countries, but some retired landing craft are sold on the interstellar black market after being eradicated and sold on the interstellar black market, becoming a favorite assault weapon of mercenary groups.

Wen Dao took a closer look at the tail end of the landing craft, and the number on it had indeed been eradicated.

Does that mean that the landing craft were imported from the black market? Be skeptical of this speculation. But because the information at hand was too scarce, Wen Dao couldn't judge whether his suspicions were necessary.

The bandits in the Imperial landing craft captured the rare beasts of Liensta, and then transported them out and sold them through the Empire-built transport ships. It sounds like a simple and straightforward poaching case, but Wen Dao always feels that this clue seems too simple, but at this stage, it seems that it can only be analyzed to this .......

The sound of footsteps in the distance interrupted Wen Dao's contemplation, and when he turned his head to look, he saw the female general walking towards him.

Matyuya's left shoulder was wrapped in a bandage, the armor on her body also had several scratches, and her fiery red hair was a little messy, but the momentum she exuded did not weaken in the slightest.

（…… The strong man is mighty, please be worshiped by Xiaosheng!)

Thinking that the female general was shot down from a high altitude by a rapid-fire cannon not long ago, and at this moment she seemed to be wandering around as if she was fine, Wen Dao had to write a big word "service" in her heart. However, if such an idea is known to the female general, I am afraid that it will not be possible to take a single axe.

"Did you do anything to them? ”

The female general looked in the direction of the cordon and cast a strange glance at Wen Dao.

"Ahaha, I don't know ...... this" Wen Dao broke out in a cold sweat. "Speaking of which, you're fine, General, don't you? It looks like you're not lightly injured. ”

"It doesn't matter if it's hurt, it will heal in two or three days. Matyuya frowned at the bandage on her shoulders, a thick haze emerging between her brows. "But Thunderhoof's wings are seriously injured, and I am afraid that the injury will not be able to fly again for two or three years...... Those sons of bitches!"

The female general punched the armor plate of the battleship, and Wendao was startled.

If you think about it, "Thunderhoof" should be the name of the Pegasus. In the previous air battle, he was injured by a rapid-fire cannon and fell from a high altitude carrying a female general, but he was able to save his life, and his toughness may not be lost to that of a female general. However, even the layman Wen Tao could see that the Pegasus named Thunderhoof should be a very special individual, at least other Pegasi might not be able to carry the fully armored and heavily armed Majuya to gallop in the sky at will.

Faced with the Viper Battleship's technological crushing that was several orders of magnitude higher, Matyua could be said to be the only backer who supported the Pegasus Knights and their undefeated. It is difficult to say whether the female general who lost her mount will be able to participate in air combat next, and even if she does, it may be difficult to perform at the level she had before. Wen Dao could almost foresee the embarrassment of the Pegasus Knights being bullied by the Viper Bandits in the next engagement.

Although he knew that there was little hope, Wen Dao couldn't help but ask.

"I'd like to ask, is there any other mount that can be replaced?"

"Thunderhoof is unique. ”

The female general shook her head and gave a negative answer.

"Hmm, is that really the case......"

Wen Dao couldn't help but moan. In the face of the super-standard violence of the interstellar arms, the defeat of the Pegasus Knights and the destruction of Leubek City are directly equated. As a retainer of the Dragon Lord, the latter is absolutely unacceptable. Wen Dao held his head in his hands as he groaned, racking his brains to think of a countermeasure.

Given the extremely limited resources, it is certainly impossible to come up with a so-called countermeasure casually. But Wen Dao's thoughtful appearance fell on Ma Qiuya's eyes, and the red-haired female general showed a rather surprised look. Sensing this, Wen Dao couldn't help but ask in confusion.

"How?"

"A bit of a surprise. The corners of Matyuya's mouth pulled into a subtle arc. "I thought that in the eyes of the Venerable Dragon Envoy, the place of Lensta was just a trivial matter. ”

“…… Although I don't know what prejudice you have against dragons. Being provoked again and again, Wen Dao couldn't help but be angry, and said in a deep voice. "But I must tell you, no matter what kind of work, I have never neglected my position!"

"Huh......" The female general's phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, as if she had re-acquainted herself, and Wen Dao also glared back unceremoniously. The eyes of the two sides crossed in the air, but unlike the previous atmosphere that seemed to be tense, there seemed to be a hot current surging in this confrontation.

After a few seconds, it was the female general who looked away first and turned her focus to the virtual window on Wen Dao's left hand. The virtual window projected by the terminal bracelet shows the relevant information of the attack on the landing craft at this moment. To the right of the window, a slowly rotating holographic coat of arms floats. The heraldic motif is a silver hand holding five sharp arrows, which is the coat of arms of the San Vano Empire.

"I know this coat of arms. ”

Staring at the slowly turning coat of arms, the female general's face had an indescribable disgust.

"You know?"

Wen Tao was stunned. Even if the Saint-Nova Empire is placed in the Milky Way Star Sea, it is one of the few interstellar powers, and the civilization of Lensta can't even build a stargazing platform, and the distance between the two is 100,000 times that of clouds and mud. Where did the female general see this imperial coat of arms?

“…… Sure enough, you don't know anything. ”

Perhaps sensing the suspicion in Wen Dao's eyes, Ma Qiuya's expression quickly turned cold. With a contemptuous murmur, the female general turned away as if announcing the interruption of conversation.

(Uh, is there anything I should know?) Wen Dao, who stayed in place, stared at the female general's back in amazement, feeling as if he had stepped into some unknown pit again. (Huh, wait, why do you say that...... ）
